	Author	Review
United States	David Denby The New Yorker	"This is a bleak but mesmerizing piece of filmmaking; it offers a glancing, chilled view of a world in which brief moments of loyalty flicker between repeated acts of betrayal"	POS
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"David Fincher's much-anticipated return to serial-killer territory is a fastidiously grim pulp entertainment that plays like a first-class train ride through progressively bleaker circles of hell"	POS
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"The sum of the parts — an evocative mood, haunting music and exceptional ensemble cast — is superbly sinister. Fincher handles the most lurid aspects deftly (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Kyle Smith New York Post	"'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' is, as you’d expect, rubbish but the word is slightly too kind. The David Fincher film (like the very similar Swedish one and the book) is not even good rubbish (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"A bewitching performance from Rooney Mara (...) Dedicated Fincher fans are likely to find this redo rather more conventional and less disturbing than Seven, Fight Club and Zodiac"	POS
United Kingdom	Philip French The Guardian	"Newcomer Rooney Mara makes a superb Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher's faithful remake (...) brisk, intelligent thriller"	POS
